D7000 Err message..anyone else?

[Lunchbox]

I have been using a d7000 for the last few days and i noticed it getting an error message once in a while. Turn the camera off and back on and it works fine but i got online and saw that this is a widespread issue.

Just wondering if anyone on here has experienced it. It doesn't really bother me too much but it is a little annoying consider the camera has about 100 actuations and has popped up error about 3 times.


We will see when i take it out to the dragstrip for a day of shooting if it gets to stay or go back to nikon.

did you insure it has the latest firmware? mine hasn't behaved that way yet.

i just looked, thats whats in mine. I dunno what to say, I may be inclined to call Nikon before hassling with taking it back and such. mine hasn't done it yet and I've turned it on many a times now.

btw i definately meant to put this in the digital discussion area not film...

I should clarify it sounds like in my original post the it shows error when i first turn it on, its doing it when i shoot, then i turn it off and back on and it seems to work ok until it happens again, i never get an error message with my old D200

What is the actual error message.

Err- camera malfunction (release shuttter)

Did you load it with film ? digitals don't work with film just wondered because we are in the film forum

I have gotten the Err message before and my aperature ring wasnt in the correct position on the lens.

There can't be anything wrong because everyone on here thinks Nikon are perfect

yeah i have done that on my old camera. this was doing it with the new nikon 35mm 1.8 and even my old kit 18-70 nikon

I honestly have never had a problem with any nikon body until now. And i realize Nikon packed a lot of new features and tech in this small camera body and thats one reason i am not too upset because usually i wait for a while for them to work the bugs out but with my past luck with Nikon i guess i took it for granted.

If you dont have your lens on largest aperture you get a FEE message and nothing works until you adjust your aperture. The Err message is something again. Ive never seen it happen with my D7000. There are only 3 sources for problems, software, hardware and meatware. Im betting its meatware.
